Over a hundred Angels, Friends and Community Partners joined us July 21st, 2017 for our Ribbon Cutting Dedication Ceremony. It was an AWESOME event and if you missed it, please visit our website below and take a peek at our beautiful facility! Everyone who walked through the doors had a smile from the time they walked in until they left. The Angels paid attention to every detail for each of the three rooms to make sure they were perfect when our welcomed guests arrive. The Hope Room is for the infant to six years old, Winter Room, 7 to 12, Rufus Room, 13 to 18 and even a meeting room called Mavis where visiting parents and their children can enjoy a snack or if a meeting is needed, this room is perfect. Since we are sharing this facility with Ready For Life, it is our plan to make this facility a multi-function Center for other Agencies to use for meetings or training. We will officially be opening our doors to visitations starting Monday, August 14th 2017, 9:00 am to 7:00 pm! For scheduling Visitations, contact Andrea Cowart at [email protected] or phone: 727 742-4909
Special Thanks to Al & Susie Bennati for all they have done to help the Angels make their dream a reality, with two very special individuals who loved children and wanted to make a difference, Nick and Kay Catizone! Special thanks to David Yates of Clearwater Marine Aquarium for taking our dream and creating magic in all the rooms! It is AMAZING! Thank you Tyler Rowland for your vision and Jim Durrell for making it happen.

PLEASE SPONSOR A CHILD – $25 PUTS A SMILE ON A FACE….
Our next major Angel event is our famous Mad Hatter Tea Party. To sponsor a child is only $25 and the Angels are matching $25 with every sponsor we receive. You still have time to make a difference and put a smile on the faces of these children who often have little to smile about! The clock is ticking because September 23rd is right around the corner. If you are able to meet this challenge, you can write a check payable to Angels Against Abuse, Inc. 5404 Leilani Drive, St Pete Beach, FL 33706 or you can pay via PayPal. Every dollar makes a difference and every child needs to smile, even if only for an afternoon. You never know the impact you will be making. Thank you in advance for helping us to help them!!!
Any Questions, just email me. Sandy Kearney, The Mad Hatter
